Which three functions can you use?

You are creating a canvas app. You plan to use variables that are scoped to a screen to store values.

You need to create and update the value of the variables.

Which three functions can you use? Each correct answer presents a complete solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
A . Collect
B . Patch
C . Navigate
D . Set
E . UpdateContext

View Answer

Answer: B,C,E

Explanation:

B: Use the Patch function to modify records in complex situations. Such as, when you do updates that require no user interaction or use forms that span multiple screens.

CE: Context variables are scoped for Screen. They are great for passing values to a screen, much like parameters to a procedure in other languages. Can be referenced from only one screen.

Functions available for context variables:

UpdateContext

Navigate

Note:

Use the UpdateContext function to create a context variable, which temporarily holds a piece of information, such as the number of times the user has selected a button or the result of a data operation.

Context variables are also preserved when a user navigates between screens. You can use Navigate to set one or more context variables for the screen that the formula will display, which is the only way to set a context variable from outside the screen.
